270 because it has more bullet weights available (if you handload).


Part of my son's thinking, and I respect this way of thinking, is he would like to have something a bit off the beaten path, something a little more distinctive. To me the convenience of having a rifle chambered in a cartridge that you can buy ammo for in the middle of freakin' nowhere if you lose, run-out of, forget your ammo or even borrow from a fellow hunter is an advantage. 280 ammo is something to take into consideration. I just think the scarcity of commercially produced. my son has read stuff written by those people! I have read it too and will buy the accounts.
